Unveiling the Power and Precision of the Fujifilm XF 50mm F1.0 R WR Lens

Overview:

Make your best-ever portraits with the Fujifilm XF 50mm F1.0 R WR Lens. With its huge maximum aperture of F1.0, this super-fast prime lens opens up a world of beautiful shallow-focus effects and low-light creativity. Experiment with depth-of-field like never before and make brilliant portrait, lifestyle, documentary, and still-life images in even the most challenging lighting conditions. And as a weather-resistant lens, its tough, weather-sealed build quality means that when paired with one of our weather-resistant X Series digital cameras, you can tackle your favorite subjects in dust, rain, and even freezing conditions with its unique, impressive optical engineering.

Used at or near its maximum F1.0 aperture, XF50mm F1.0 R WR can produce an astonishingly narrow depth of field. Its precision-engineered, rounded diaphragm produces large, smooth bokeh for a professional look allowing you to create portraits with striking simplicity and an almost three-dimensional quality. You can use this new power in selective focus to keep only the subject's eyes in focus and make captivating close-up character studies. At night, or in darkened interiors, this lens offers the widest apertures yet seen on an XF Lens, allowing you to draw in more light. Plus, you can also easily achieve fast shutter speeds that freeze movement and keep ISO settings lower for detail-rich results. Alternatively, combine high ISO settings with the F1.0 aperture for incredible versatility and use in other low-light applications like astrophotography.

More details:

• New bokeh experience - The smooth outlines and the creamy bokeh of the XF50mm f/1.0 R WR is not like any other F1.0 lens you know. Finely controlling aberrations and maintaining crisp sharp edges means the lens creates an extraordinary balance of backgrounds and foregrounds. Witnessing this well-designed contrast will fascinate and inspire your creativity.
• Express yourself like never before - The magic of the XF50mm f/1.0 R WR is not limited when used fully open at F1.0. The images gradually gain sharpness and resolution as you rotate the aperture ring. At F2, the vignetting completely disappears and the circle bokeh is perfectly shaped. The images you can achieve change their expression every 1/3 step. The discrete aperture values take you to a new world of expression.
• Separation, near and far - The angle of view is equivalent to 76mm in 35mm format and when combined with the outstanding image quality, it allows you to frame the world in a different way. The XF50mm f/1.0 R WR brings a spotlight to your images by separating the subject, foreground, and background regardless of the distance. However, the foregrounds and backgrounds are just as essential in the frame as beautiful bokeh, and help you realize the true meaning of "focus".
• Autofocus breeds confidence - When using a lens with a shallow depth of field, even the slightest mistake is not forgiven. Using lenses at F1.0 with such precision requires users to have some patience. The XF50mm f/1.0 R WR isn't like normal F1.0 lenses. By using the advantages of the mirrorless system, the lens utilizes high precision using the autofocus of the camera, including face and eye autofocus and phase detection pixels. Even without patience, you can have full control with this highly advanced lens.
• Using the weather to inspire you - Raindrops at night can bring joy and excitement whilst using this lens. The glow of lights reflecting on the wet pavements transforms itself into beautiful bokeh and adds color to the darkness. With the aperture set to F1.0, the weather-resistant XF50mmF1.0 R WR can capture light shimmering in the dark, and creates enchanting images that justify you getting wet.
